Mounting assembly for mounting a plurality of inkjet print modules

Abstract

A mounting assembly () for mounting a plurality of inkjet print modules in an adjoining relationship along a longitudinal direction of the mounting assembly () comprises a linear guide () extending in the longitudinal direction for supporting the plurality of modules such that the modules are movable along the linear guide (). It further comprises for each of the plurality of modules a carrier () for mounting an inkjet print head including an array of nozzles formed on a nozzle face, wherein the carriers () are supported on the linear guide () such that they are movable along the linear guide (), wherein in a mounted configuration of the inkjet print heads their nozzle face is arranged on a first side of the linear guide (). Each carrier () comprises a first adjustment mechanism for adjusting a distance of the carriers) of two adjoining modules of the plurality of modules, the first adjustment mechanism comprising a first control member having an operating section for mechanically cooperating with a tool for adjusting the distance. Each carrier () further comprises a second adjustment mechanism for adjusting an angle position of the inkjet print head mounted to the carrier () with respect to an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, the second adjustment mechanism comprising a second control member having an operating section for mechanically cooperating with a tool for adjusting the angle position. The operating sections of the control members of the first and of the second adjustment mechanism are accessible from the first side of the linear guide ().
